Text in Shona: 5 "Kunyange zvakadaro zvino miviri yedu yakafanana nemiviri yehama dzedu, navana vedu vakafanana navana vavo; tarirai, tosunga vanakomana vedu navakunda vedu, vave varanda; vamwe vakunda vedu vatosungwa, isu hatine simba rokuzvidzivisa, nokuti minda yedu neminda yedu yemizambiringa yatova yavamwe."
Translation of the previous text to Swahili (individual language):
5 Na sasa jamaa zetu ni sawa na jamaa za ndugu zetu;+ wana wetu ni sawa na wana wao, lakini tazama, tunawashusha wana wetu na binti zetu kuwa watumwa,+ na tayari wengine kati ya binti zetu wamefanywa watumwa; wala hakuna nguvu mikononi mwetu kwa kuwa mashamba yetu na mizabibu yetu imekuwa ya wengine."
